The filter-branch command, the contents of ~/.gitconfig and the tree are the same. The command succeeds on cygwin, but fails on Solaris due to unset GIT_AUTHOR_NAME and GIT_COMMITTER_NAME :

I use git 1.7.6, from sunfreeware. I hope there is some simple thing that needs to be configured. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
